Carrying a gun increases your chances of being killed.
Example 1:
31 year old Joseph Wilcox pulled out the handgun for which he had a concealed weapons permit but that his family says he rarely carried. He approached Jerad Miller, a 31-year-old ex-convict who investigators say walked into Walmart, fired off one round, and told shoppers, “This is a revolution.” His wife, Amanda Miller, 22, was trailing behind, authorities said.
[Wilcox] immediately and heroically moved towards the position of Jerad Miller, “As soon as he began to confront Jerad Miller with his firearm, Amanda Miller removed her firearm and shot him one time in the ribs area, where he immediately collapsed.”
Example 2:
According to Garcia, an intruder was discovered first by the 56-year-old Terra and the intruder allegedly attacked him with a metal rod. The suspect also reportedly managed to get a gun that belonged to the priest away from him and use it against him.
When Walker, 29, emerged from his room – after hearing noises – the suspect also allegedly shot him with the gun, Garcia said.
